Aristocrats from the Georgia sea coast, seeking a healthier climate, selected the site of Roswell, and here, on the bluffs overlooking the creeks of the Chattahoochie River, they built their plantation homes in the early 19th century. Barrington King, co-founder of Roswell, selected the highest point in Roswell for his home, Barrington Hall. It was built in the Greek Revival style of architecture and was completed in 1842. The home remained in the hands of the Barrington King family until 2002.
Barrington Hall is listed on the National Register and was included in Atlanta magazine's list of the fifty Most Beautiful Homes in metro Atlanta.
In 2005, the home, its original furnishings, and all surrounding grounds were purchased by the city of Roswell. The city is committed to ensuring Barrington Hall will be maintained as a historical treasure and available to the public for historical, cultural and educational purposes.
